Don't listen to Warren Sapp, mostly because he's been wrong about our "D" ever since, and during, our last SB('08).
Actually, and unfortunately, it was our "O"/Ben who dropped the ball against GB in our "other", and more recent SB.
But hey, that's another story.

Actually, it was Mike Wallace who quite literally "dropped the ball" in our last Super Bowl loss. But you're right, that's a story for another time.

GET READY FOR A BIG W TODAY! It's still morning, but Oktoberfest already began in my house! WOOOOOOOOT

old and slow is definitely not the problem. i felt like in the Denver game, there was just no aggresive feeling or play there, not sure if the altitude was a factor, but it definitely wasn't the Steelers D that i have watched in other games in mile-high stadium. of course, it could have been key injuries, early season jitters, high altitude fatigue, other factors we don't see as spectators. i did see moments of real defensive aggression in the game against the jets today, so it definitely isn't the old and slow trashmedia argument.

it may also have had a lot to do with the fact that Peyton Manning is a helluva lot better than Mark Sanchez...
